Very cool, love boards with PCI AND !SA slots on board. Beautiful case, one of my favorites here. edit: found this, didn't realize they were still in business. CRAZY Cool stuff!

Tried SwitchRes 2.5.3 with no joy there either. However I did think to message them with a request for release of the source code for that and the earlier version. We'll see what happens, we might get lucky? Thinking it's likely not what I need to achieve Portrait Mode in 1920x1200 or even...

MacPortrait appears to max out at ancient TPD resolutions. Is there a current solution? Windows and Ubuntu have had me spoiled for the longest. :rolleyes: The last time I ran a second screen in that orientation on a Mac it was the Macintosh Portrait Display on the 2300c/DuoDock+ next to the 21"...

Thanks to obsolete, PCI VidCard arrived today and it drives the 1920x1200 panel just fine over DVI. Swapped the cables just to see and the first one he sent me does as well when hooked up to the HPZR24w at its native resolution. New one's back to only 1920x1080 when hooked up to the Dell 1440p...

Yay! It finally arrived! 160GB 2.5" IDE drive in what looks to be factory antistatic bag nestled nicely in bubblewrap into a box showing no signs of abuse whatsoever. I think I'll trust it after all. New VidCard's on the way via United Package Smashers, but the sender does a fab job of...

Aye! 3+2=5 in the decision making process is a very workable number. We had a larger board of directors/officers at NYMUG back in the day (9?) with too many portfolios and I found it unwieldly in meetings.

Why Mint over Ubuntu, how has it "lost its way?" edit: AHA! you beat me to the post. I guess I may need to give Mint a try on one the HP ProBooks in the herd. A dock for a third one should be here this week and two docks are set up on my KVM setup right now. Win10 and Ubuntu so far. One came...

Looks like I quoted myself instead of editing. WHAT-EVER!!! No update as of now, they rolled it back to: Moving Through Network In Transit to Next Facility, Arriving Late February 2, 2026 . . . from arriving today by 9:00PM all day/night long. :rolleyes: So I'll put in for a refund in...

HDD for the MDD'03 finally made it to Raleigh, so we'll see if it makes it here "tomorrow by 9:00PM "or it's "free" on Tuesday. Banged away at getting the new KVM setup yesterday and borked it but good. :rolleyes: Finally feel great today after a nice long nap. Got up at a reasonable hour...

If the HDD doesn't get here tomorrow it's a freebie . . . as far as I can tell. 🤞 VisionTek PCI card for the second display is being shipped to me this weekend. I hope it can drive 1200x1920 portrait off DVI so I only have to switch the main 1440 screen manually to VGA. Dunno, maybe the...

GRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No further updated on the spinner. If it's grinding thru the maw of USPS. I wonder if it will work reliably if it gets here at all? :rolleyes:

Yeah, forgot about that, but was aiming the passthru terminator block at general audience in answer to the termination issue @Oelmuvun mentioned. You mentioned doing it, have you double checked that the keying on the crimped connector is properly aligned?

Good to hear I'm not the only one pushing the deadline out by 25% around here. :) If I can't make that extended deadline looks like I've got a project lined up for MarchIntosh! edit: Checked USPS site, doesn't say it left Memphis, but "in transit to next facility." WHATEVER . . .

We’re sorry for the delay. If you have not received your package by February 2, you can come back here the next day for a refund. February 1 deadline officially missed. Don't think it ever got out of Memphis. At 5:00 PM it was listed as delayed in transit . . . . . . so if it gets here on...
